Only Stars and Thoughts

As dusk approaches I grab my notebook and pen Sit under a tree I write about life I feel the breeze on my face I talk to the wind This is what inspires An orange sky calls my name The light fades away Moon light shines on me Here is where my mind finds peace Only stars and thoughts Each poem I write Tells a story of my life My hopes, dreams, wishes Time everlasting Return to this other world Until the next night ***For Francine Roberts contest, “Morning, noon, or night senryus”*** ** By Chris Matt *8-22-2011
